On the NiMoO4 oxidative dehydrogenation of propane to propene: some physical correlations with the catalytic activity

Chromium Supported on Mesocellular Silica Foam (MCF) for Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Propane

“…However, the propane DH reaction is a highly endothermic process requiring temperatures in excess of 873 K to obtain significant yields of propylene [4]. The thermal dehydrogenation process is energy intensive and because of the high temperatures required, catalyst coking and undesired light alkanes formation are also inherent problems [5,6]. Thus, from both technological and economical points of view, the development of new less energy-intensive processes applicable for the cost reduction production of propylene is highly desirable [7,15].…”

Photoluminescent Properties of CoMoO<sub>4</sub> Nanorods Quickly Synthesized and Annealed in a Domestic Microwave Oven

“…In recent years, different chemical methods have been employed to synthesize CoMoO 4 powders such as solid state reaction [18,20], co-precipitation [21], sol-gel [22] and hydrothermal methods [14], etc. However, some of these methods require long annealing times and result in higher costs [23] as well as other disadvantages such as the formation of a large amount of organic waste, polydisperse particles sizes and an undefined morphology.…”

Selective oxidation of propane over PMoVM/α‐Al2O3 (M: Co, Fe, or Ni)

“…The good catalytic performance of 30PMoV-Co/Al 2 O 3 is probably due to the presence of MoO 3 , CoMoO 4 , and (Mo 0.3 V 0.7 ) 2 O 5 phases according to the XRD study. It has been reported by Mazzochia et al (1991) that cobalt molybdate catalyst was active and selective in propane oxidation to propene. On the other hand, vanadium species in V-O-Mo pairs have been proposed as the active sites in the oxidative activation of propane over Mo-V-(Te)(Nb) catalysts (Botella et al, 2002(Botella et al, , 2005Concepcion et al, 2004;Baca et al, 2005;Ueda et al, 2005).…”
